It's amazing -- while Ableton Live on computer is really straightforward and I made a lot of neat stuff, the iPad method is completely different.
Making music on iPad is harder, it's more chaotic, and I can't do things the same way -- more performance-based 'luck' and less focussed strategizing around a timeline. I really love it.
So far, my tools are:
Drambo
Aum
Koala (sampler & AUV3 update)
Turnado
FAC Drums and Maximina
Perforator
and a bunch of other plugins.
It's been interesting to watch some of the tools I thought I would use (like Cubasis 2 & 3) and Beatmaker sit unused, but some things I never anticipated being important are essentials.
I will change this as I continue creating, but so far (already 2023) I have 10 tracks. They aren't complete, they aren't perfect, and most of all they are missing the standard song construction -- but they are passion projects.
Lastly,. I bought a CD Baby album for $100 awhile back and never published. I have a bunch of older tracks, I'm considering throwing them all into a massive compilation. Not sure how that would work. Exciting to make music!!!
Heres a track: Product Equals Profit
Wonder how many people will think my stuff even is music? I'm not expecting to quit my job or make money, just doing a passion projects. Soul food!
